The Sims: Deluxe Edition

[Kunta]

Hello,

I can't find a No-CD Crack for this game at all.. I used the unsafedisc analyser and it shows this Version/Release:v2.72.000
CRC:c04b8551

I'm guessing that's the safedisc version.. Any versions of unsafedisc out there that does anything about it? Plz leave a link for it and a link for a No-CD crack for the game if anyone has them. thx

No public unwrapping tool is avaliable for that version.
Have you looked in the usual places for cracks (See sticky topic) like GCW and Megagames.

I was wondering if you could use the unleashed nocd.exe as I thought the deluxe contains the unleashed version. I have searched everywhere for 2 weeks without any positive results either.

[Kunta]

I tryed the unleashed no-cd patch and it doesn't work. I looked everywhere for a patch, google, yahoo, altavista, astalavista.com and all thosesites on the sticky post, and there was nothing. I tryed all the cd tricks with DT, CDClone, Alk 120% etc etc, and nothing either.

I just might buy a second copy. 39$ u.s. at walmart.

What expansion packs are in the deluxe version ? Try a nocd for the latest expansion pack that's in deluxe.

I have seen enough requests for it from all over the world. I would think that would stir up some of the great minds.

There will probably never be any cracks for this version, no one wants to revisit an old release protected with a new safedisc version.

Yes, but I'm figuring that's ALL they changed, and because the executable of the last applied expansion pack is always used, this COULD work. Of course if it doesn't, there's always the Clonecd/Daemon Tools combo. Still works for me even for the latest safedisc versions.

I tryed the CloneCD and Daemon Tool combo and it did'nt work for the safedisc 2.72.000... Unless there's a way that I didn't do it. If anyone could do a little guide for me on how to exactly do this plz?

[RincewindTheWiz]

Well, it should work this way :

1) Find out which cd is needed by the game and contains the copy protection
2) Make an image to the hard disk with daemon tools.
Try selecting "Game cd", if that doesn't work you might use ClonyXXl and generate a profile for CloneCD
3) Open that image with daemon tools latest version.

This works for me for at least battlefield1942, which is safedisc 2.80x

I don't need to switch on safedisc emulation, but you could try that if the game still refuses to work.

Also don't forget that many protections check the ATIP, so use an utility to hide that or don't use the cd in a cdwriter. Don't forget that Daemon Tools makes an extra cd drive letter, if you want to use it, most games need to be reinstalled from that extra virtual drive.

Here is the english version. Some bits are still in german but you should be able to use it. And have you tried the "game cd" profile first in CloneCD ? That one worked perfectly for me, never had to use ClonyXXL. And don't forget to get the latest Daemon Tools version here.

[Kunta]

I got the English version now, thx.. I got Daemon Tools 3.26...

I used the clonecd game cd option also and it was a no go...

So i'll use the option that this clony gives me.. Write the image to the HD right and then mount it on the daemon tools and play from that?

[Kunta]

I used the Clony settings for CloneCd and wrote the image to my HD and used Daemon Tools to play the image and it didn't work. Guess this Safedisc 2.72.000 is a real bitch to get past.

[RincewindTheWiz]

Well, I'm stumped. It works for me on battlefield1942 but that's not a solution for you. Only thing I can think of is trying out Alcohol 120%, it's even better than Daemon Tools in some aspects.
